Chapter 783: Powerful official? Heroic official? Destroy the Huo family! Boss Cao: I feel wronged
Canopy.
【After the tragic loss of his beloved, Liu Bingyi faced an increasingly severe situation in the court. 】
[After Xu Pingjun's death, Huo Guang's youngest daughter, Huo Chengjun, was manipulated by Huo Xian and others to become Emperor Xuan's second empress.]
【During this period, Liu Bingyi seemed to obey Huo Guang’s orders.】
[Most of the court affairs were decided by Huo Guang.]
[Until six years of forbearance. ]
[24-year-old Liu Bingyi suddenly showed his fangs! ]
[At that time, Huo Guang had died, and Liu Bing had realized that the time to strike back at the Huo family and regain imperial power had quietly arrived.]
[But he did not act impulsively out of a desire for revenge.]
[At that time, the Huo Guang family was arrogant and domineering, which offended many people. ]
[As soon as Huo Guang died, some ministers suggested liquidating the Huo family, but Liu Bingyi did not adopt this suggestion.]
[Instead, Huo Guang was buried with great ceremony according to the emperor's specifications to appease Huo's emotions.]
【At the same time, the actions were carried out in an orderly manner. 】
[Liu Bingyi keenly realized that the Huo family was not a monolithic entity and that there were many conflicts of interest and contradictions.]
[Liu Bingyi quietly took advantage of this and adopted the strategy of division and disintegration.]
[Secretly stir up the relationship between the Huo family's children, making them suspicious of each other and fighting.]
[The Huo Group, which was once tightly united, gradually began to show cracks, its internal cohesion was greatly reduced, and its power was subsequently weakened. ]
[At the same time, he began to gradually promote officials who were loyal to him and placed them in key positions.]
[This will gradually replace the Huo family members in important positions in the court.]
[He had a keen eye for talent and appointed a group of officials with real talent and high moral character, such as Zhang Tang and Du Zhou.]
[These new nobles derived their power from the emperor and acted in accordance with Liu Bingyi's will.]
[The Huo family's influence in the court gradually declined.]
[Especially the key military power, which was stripped away bit by bit.]
【At the same time, Liu Bingyi was waiting for the Huo family to make a mistake. 】
【Finally, in the fourth year of Dijie (66 BC), Huo Xian and others, fearing that their attempt to poison Empress Xu would be exposed, foolishly planned a coup d'état, attempting to depose Liu Bingyi and establish Huo Yu as emperor.】
[Liu Bingyi had already noticed the Huo family's unusual behavior and secretly laid a trap.]
[As soon as the Huo family's rebellion plan came to light, he acted quickly]
[With the force of thunder and lightning, Huo Yu, Huo Xian, Huo Yun, Huo Shan and other core members of the Huo family were captured and killed! ]
[The Huo family members who participated in the rebellion were also severely punished, without any escape.]
[In August of the same year, Liu Bingyi took advantage of the situation to depose Huo Chengjun from the position of empress and imprisoned her in Zhaotai Palace.]
【He later committed suicide.】
[At this point, the Huo family's power was completely uprooted, and Liu Bingyi successfully took back the imperial power.]
[He truly took control of the highest power of the Western Han Dynasty and was able to exercise his ambition to govern the country without any hindrance.]
【Huo Guang was Liu Bingyi's benefactor.】
【But Liu Bing had already wiped out Huo Guang's clan. 】
【But it is worth mentioning. 】
【Liu Bingyi was not an ungrateful person, but rather he valued friendship.】
【Not only is there an allusion to the old sword and the deep affection between them. 】
[For example, Zhang He, the eunuch of the palace, had already passed away at that time, so Liu Bingyi specially appointed his grandson as General of the Imperial Guards, Marquis of Guannei, and granted him a fief of 300 households.]
【Bing Ji had been protecting Liu Bingyi since he was an infant.】
【However, Liu Bingyi could not remember the events of his infancy, so he did not reward Bing Ji.】
[Bing Ji was also honest and never said that he saved the emperor.]
[Until an old woman named Ze'ao wrote a letter to the emperor to complain, saying that she had served the emperor but had not received any reward.]
【Liu Bingyi saw the memorial, which mentioned that Bing Ji could be a witness.】
【So Liu Bingyi called Bing Ji and Ze'ao. 】
[As a result, Bing Ji did not talk about his own affairs, but blamed Ze Ai:]
[I asked you to take care of the emperor, but you neglected to take care of him and even beat him. The ones who really raised the emperor were Hu Zu and Guo Zhengqing. They are the benefactors! ]
【Then Liu Bingyi finally understood what had happened to him in prison.】
[He also sent people to look for the two wet nurses, and after learning that they had both passed away, he gave their descendants a generous reward.]
[Even for Xi'en's request for a reward, Liu Bingyi exempted Ze'ao from her slavery and gave her a reward of 100,000 yuan for her retirement.]
[As for Bing Ji, he was granted the title of Marquis of Boyang, a fief of 1,300 households, and eventually became the prime minister.]
[The Huo family was destroyed, and thousands of Huo's groups in the entire Chang'an city were implicated. ]
[And the Huo family was indeed arrogant and domineering on weekdays. They poisoned the queen, intended to poison the prince, and even replaced the emperor.]
【Because of rebellion, the whole clan was exterminated. 】
【But even so, Liu Bingyi did not pursue Huo Guang's guilt, but continued to maintain his reputation and treatment. 】
[When the Qilin Pavilion's meritorious officials were later selected, Huo Guang, who had died many years ago, was ranked first.]
[His status is on the same level as Xiao He, a founding hero. ]
[It can be considered as Liu Bingyi, which fully reflects the status and achievements of Huo Guang, a powerful minister throughout history. ]
...outside the sky.
When Cao Cao saw this, he pointed at Huo Guang's image on the sky curtain and said cheerfully:
"There are always people scolding me, saying that I am a powerful official who bullies His Majesty."
"How have I bullied Your Majesty?"
"Although I, Cao Cao, am indeed in charge of the work of the Han Dynasty."
"But I, Cao Cao, did not usurp the throne. At most, I am just a Huo Guang."
"And Huo Guang's status is that of a top meritorious official of the Han Dynasty!"
"I, Cao Mengde, am now supporting the Han Dynasty. I have supported more than half of it. Am I not also a top loyal minister of the Han Dynasty like Huo Guang?"
"Besides, I, Cao Mengde, have never deposed or enthroned an emperor without authorization. In terms of loyalty, I am even more loyal than Huo Guang."
"Why is Huo Guang a meritorious official in the Kirin Pavilion, while I, Cao Cao, am called a traitor to the Han Dynasty by so many people?"
"Oh, this really shows the importance of public opinion."
As Cao Cao spoke, he actually believed what he said.
I feel like I am a misunderstood loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.
Suddenly I felt a little depressed and irritated.
And in the Western Han Dynasty.
When Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, first saw Huo Guang’s wife, he dared to poison the queen!
That was real anger.
From the very beginning, Huo Guang's behavior as a powerful official made Liu Che feel uncomfortable.
But still thinking.
Now, when Liu Che saw that Huo Guang's followers had poisoned the queen and controlled the government, he was naturally doubly angry.
However, this anger was aroused when he saw the entire Huo family being executed on the sky curtain.
A lot of them disappeared immediately.
Liu Che completely simulated Huo Guang in his mind.
He is a man of talent and took over a big man in crisis.
He also assisted three generations of emperors in succession and maintained a smooth transition of power.
Although he behaved like a powerful official, he did not violate the imperial power or commit treason or usurp the throne.
And finally, after making contributions to the Han Dynasty.
The Huo family group was also appropriately exterminated.
In this way, the achievements he left behind still remain.
But the Huo family could no longer continue to harm the Han Dynasty.
Thinking of this, Liu Che felt a lot more comfortable.
Liu Che glanced at Huo Guang again and asked:
"Huo Guang, you on the sky screen, assisted the emperor and deposed and enthroned the emperor, strengthened the Han Dynasty and endangered it."
"And what do you think of the Huo family's final outcome?"
Huo Guang stared at the sky for a few seconds before he calmly replied:
"Your Majesty."
"It is my honor to serve the Han Dynasty."
"It is my great responsibility and honor to be trusted by your majesty to govern the country."
"Although I later deposed and enthroned emperors, I first supported Liu He and then deposed him."
"Obviously, I didn't really want to destroy Liu He at the beginning."
"It's just that maybe his behavior is really too absurd."
"For the sake of the Han Dynasty, I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."
"In the end, the Huo Group actually committed treason, so being exterminated was their own fault."
"Fortunately, Tianmu has now revealed the final outcome of the Huo family in advance."
"This is not only a warning to me, but also a warning to the rest of my family."
"If Your Majesty does not abandon me and still dares to employ me."
"I believe that from now on, the Huo family will be more cautious in what they say and do, and serve the Han Dynasty wholeheartedly, and will never dare to be as arrogant and domineering as they were on the sky curtain and bring about their own destruction."
I have to say that Huo Guang's answer was indeed very appropriate.
Although Liu Che was a little angry at first.
But he had no intention of punishing Huo Guang in the present for spoiling future events on the sky curtain.
At most, we can be on guard.
Now, after listening to Huo Guang's words, Liu Che felt much more relieved.
Smiling, Liu Che said:
"Good! You are worthy of being my valued regent. You are indeed a pillar of the Han Dynasty!"
After saying this, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone knows that the crisis faced by Huo Guang is over.
Your Majesty's mood should have stabilized.
Everyone continued to watch the sky curtain, wanting to see what Liu Bingyi did after he gained power. (End of this chapter)
